Reigning MotoGP champion Jorge Martin is set to return to action at the Czech Grand Prix after several months on the sidelines due to injuries.
Following the introduction of new MotoGP testing rules, the Spaniard and Aprilia arranged a private test at Misano to help him get back up to speed on the RS-GP.
With just one race under his belt this season in Qatar, Martin clocked 64 laps in testing, to boost his adaptation to the Noale machine.
Aprilia also revealed that Martin will undergo a medical check before being cleared to participate in MotoGP’s return to Brno.
“I’m really happy to be here. It’s been a difficult journey,” Martin stated.
“Finally, after more than three months, I’m back on a MotoGP bike, so I’m super happy.
“It’s a pity that I was injured so many times that we didn’t make the whole season, but now we are back. This is the most important thing.
“The feeling today was great. We did a great job, I think, from the beginning, from less to more and more during all the day.
“And finally, we were able to work a lot during this day. So I’m super happy and ready for what’s coming.
“The plan is to come back in Brno. So I hope everything goes well during this week, I can train in normal circumstances and I hope to see you all in Brno.”
Martin will make his return in the final round before the summer break, but speculation remains intense regarding his destination for the 2026 season.
